MAINTENANCE INDICATOR
It informs you when the next routine service is due in accordance with the vehicle servicing schedule in the Main-tenance Guide. This information is dependent on two parameters: the mileage covered, and the time elapsed since the last visit.
Operation
From switching on the ignition and for a few seconds, the span-ner symbolising maintenance operations lights up; the instru-ment panel tells you the distance remaining to the next service.
Example: there remain up to the next service:
A few seconds after this, the engine oil level indicator is displayed, then the total mileage recorder resumes its normal role. The instrument panel gives the total and trip mileages.
Operation if the distance to the next service is less than 1 000 km (600 miles)
Each time you switch on the igni-tion and for 5 seconds, the span-ner and the distance fl ash.
Example: there remain up to the next service: 500 km (300 miles). On switching on the ignition and for 5 seconds, the instrument panel indicates:
A few seconds after this, the engine oil level indicator is displayed, then the total mileage recorder resumes its normal role and the mainte-nance symbol remains lit up.
This is a warning to you that a service must be carried out at the earliest opportunity.
The instrument panel gives the total and trip mileages.
Operation if the service interval has been passed
Each time you switch on the igni-tion, the maintenance symbol and the distance covered (preceded by a minus) beyond the recom-mended interval fl ash.
Example: You have exceeded the service interval by 300 km (300 miles).
The routine service on your vehi-cle needs to be carried as soon as possible.
A few seconds after switching on the ignition, the total mile-age recorder resumes its normal role and the maintenance symbol remains lit up.

Maintenance intervals
If you use your vehicle in par-ticularly diffi cult conditions, it is essential to have recourse to the service schedule for "special conditions" comprising shorter intervals between services. See "Maintenance Guide".
Reset to zero
Your CITROËN technician resets the indicator to zero after each service. However, if you do your own servicing, the procedure for resetting to zero is as follows:1. Switch off the ignition.2. Press on button A and keep it pressed.3. Switch on the ignition.4. Keep button A pressed down until the screen indicates "=0"and the maintenance symbol disappears.
Note: If the maximum time between two oil changes is reached before the mileage has been covered, the mainte-nance spanner lights up and the instrument panel indicates "0".
MILEAGE RECORDER
Display
When the driver's door is opened or the vehicle is unlocked with the remote control, for around 30 seconds there is display of the mileage recorders and sometimes the maintenance spanner.
Trip mileage recorder reset
This can operate when the ignition is switched on.
With a long press on the zero reset button A, the trip mileage dis-played resets to zero.
FUEL GAUGE
If the fuel low warning lamp comes on permanently on horizontal ground, accompanied by a sound signal, there remain around 9 l of fuel (petrol version) or 8 l of fuel (Diesel version).
When the second-to-last bar dis-appears, you still have approx. 5 lof fuel.
